Abstract : Mycoplasma meleagridis is a prominent turkey bacterial pathogen associated with airsacculitis and reproductive disorders. Notwithstanding the economic losses caused by M. meleagridis, its genome has still not been sequenced. For a better understanding of its genetic background and pathogenicity mechanisms, we sequenced the genome of M. meleagridis type strain ATCC 25294.
